 1 

Thou art love and Thou art light, Lord,

In the Son as life Thou art;

Love expressing, light illum'ning,

Thou dost life to us impart.

 

Thou art love! Thou art light!

In the Son as life Thou art;

Love expressing, light illum'ning

Thou dost life to us impart.

 
 2 

Love bespeaks Thy very being,

What Thou dost is shown by light;

Love is inward, light is outward,

Love accompanies the light.

 

Thou art love! Thou art light!

In the Son as life Thou art;

Love expressing, light illum'ning

Thou dost life to us impart.

 
 3 

Love by grace is manifested,

And the light by truth is shown;

By Thy love we may enjoy Thee;

By Thy light Thou, Lord, art known.

 

Thou art love! Thou art light!

In the Son as life Thou art;

Love expressing, light illum'ning

Thou dost life to us impart.

 
 4 

Thru Thy love, which led to Calvary,

We receive the life of God;

Light our understanding opens,

That we may apply the blood.

 

Thou art love! Thou art light!

In the Son as life Thou art;

Love expressing, light illum'ning

Thou dost life to us impart.

 
 5 

Thru Thy love, as life Thou enter'st

Fellowship with Thee to give;

Thru Thy light we take Thy cleansing

And in fellowship may live.

 

Thou art love! Thou art light!

In the Son as life Thou art;

Love expressing, light illum'ning

Thou dost life to us impart.

 
 6 

By the light and blood which cleanses,

The anointing we shall know;

Then the life of love Thine essence,

More and more in us will flow.

 

Thou art love! Thou art light!

In the Son as life Thou art;

Love expressing, light illum'ning

Thou dost life to us impart.

 
 7 

By Thy love we are Thy children,

Abba Father calling Thee;

Light disperses all our darkness,

Till, like Him, Thy Son, we see.

 

O what grace! O what truth!

Love is seen and light is shown!

We would praise Thee never ceasing,

Thou by love and light art known!
